【题目】The UN has recognized the contributions of volunteers on Dec.5, International Volunteer Day. Here, the four things are offered to consider before taking the leap into overseas volunteering.

Choose your organization carefully

1 volunteering may be a fundraising mechanism(筹资机制) for a development project. For others, volunteering is fundamental to their programs, and those serving take on professional roles in longer-term development.

2

Volunteers want to help and make a difference, but most know this isn’t a purely selfless act. You will learn new skills, broaden your horizons and come to better understand yourself and the world. You want to help reduce global poverty or protect the natural world, and that’s all OK. 3? Have you always wanted to travel, but not as a tourist? Work with kids? When you understand your motivations, you’ll be in a better position to choose the option that is right for you.

Work alongside the local community

Often times, travelers volunteer in isolation(隔离) from the local community in which they are working in. 4 This enables you to ensure you are committing to a project that promotes long term and sustainable change.

A volunteer trip is just the beginning

5. Further ignite(点燃) the global change maker in you by taking your experience one step further when you return home. Spread the message of your transformative experience to others, helping to spark the change within them.

A. But what else

B. Know why you are going

C. Believe you know it all

D. Communities always welcome volunteers

E. Volunteer travel is a life-changing experience

F. Some organizations require you to pay your own way, and often include a fee

G. Make sure to travel with organizations that have strong partnerships with local communities

【题目】 Hard work really does pay off. Scientists find that perseverance (坚持不懈) leads to better grades and higher achievements in school.

“Being passionate (热情的) is not enough to ensure academic success,” says researchers, who thought of “courage” as a key to success. This is also regarded as effort in reaching long-term goals, and determination to continue one's efforts in spite of hardships.

Researchers think that the finding could help create new training to help children develop the skill and help ensure their future success.

Researchers from the Academy of Finland studied more than 2,000 students from Helsinki. They were followed through their academic career from 12 to 16, the sixth grade until the ninth grade in local school years. Researchers found that the factor that best predicts courage was related to goals, with previous academic achievements playing no role in developing the skill.

Professor Katariina Salmela-Aro, who led the study, said, “Courage means a young person is really interested in his or her studies and does not give up easily. A key element of courage is high perseverance when facing difficulties and hardships. The important finding is that these factors are the key to success and well-being. Our study shows the power of courage.”

Professor Salmela-Aro also thinks it is important to develop new practices and qualities to improve courage in teenagers. She added, “Young people should see everyday school work as part of their life in a broader context and establish achievable goals for themselves. Schools must also serve as a place where it is safe to fail and learn to deal with setbacks. One must not be discouraged by setbacks, but draw strength and new energy from them!

1What can we learn about the research?

A.It takes at least three years.B.It helps students make progress.

C.It makes many discoveries.D.It follows 2,000 students abroad.

2What should students do according to the researchers?

A.Focus on former grades.B.Achieve their goals.

C.Try all their best.D.Forget sadness.

3What does the underlined word “setbacks” in Paragraph 6 mean?

A.Strengths.B.Difficulties.

C.Weaknesses.D.Efforts

4Which is the text probably taken from?

A.A picture book.B.A literature book.

C.A geography textbook.D.An educational magazine.

I don’t think this wise that the school requires us to have some extra classes on weekends. In our view, we should be allowed more time of our own. It might be true that adding some extra classes would be of some helpful to a few passive students. However, we cannot always expect rely on someone else to decide for us which is necessary for our success. Besides, the place that we are weak varies great from person to person. What our teachers do in the class can rarely meet the needs of individual students. Thus, if we can have more free times, we can focus on our weaknesses and balanced our energy on different subjects.
